I got this as a sample after purchasing my Meteorites Winter Radiance Compact. It's a pretty big sample - 30mL. I was a bit hesitant in trying this as foaming cleansers tend to dry my skin out more than gel cleansers but seeing that it was a foaming "creme" and has gotten nice reviews on MUA I decided to try it out.
I used this as a pre-cleanse prior to my Dermalogica Microfoliant. You only need a little bit and the texture felt pretty similar to Clarins' Foaming Cleanser. It's pretty creamy and it didn't foam up much (maybe my face/hands weren't wet enough) but it felt nice while I was massaging it on my skin. I actually liked the creamy feeling moreso than if it were to foam up a lot.
After rinsing my face felt SQUEAKY clean and to my surprise NOT AT ALL TIGHT  I used to HATE the Clarins' Foaming Cleanser because my face felt quite tight after not to mention it irritated it a little due to the weird fragrance in Clarins. Guerlain has an even stronger fragrance as with all their products but I quite liked the Guerlain fragrance and it wasn't irritant at all. I think with Guerlain fragrances you either hate it or love it.
Even after I finished with my Microfoliant my face didn't feel tight or dry which is amazing considering my skin, although super resilient, is more sensitive to cleansers.
This is definitely a purchase item for me after I try a few more cleansers on my shopping list  |

| Thanks for the review sormuimui, I will have to get a sample of this. I too am very sensitive to cleansers. |

Me too 
The issima range is definitely one of the best skincare ranges/products I've ever used & my skin is quite sensitive too.  |

| Was using this this morning and wanted to update. I think I forgot to mention that this is their Issima PURE DEW Cleansing Foaming Cream. Anyways I still use this occasionally whenever I feel I want to take a break from my Osea Cleansers. I don't use Dermalogica's Microfoliant anymore - it dried my skin out like crazy but I still love this cleanser and think that it's one of the best foaming cleansers around. It's not HG material but as far as foaming cleansers go this is the most non-drying and I highly recommend it if you like lots of suds because this requires extremely little to foam up really well and cleans really well. For extremely dry skins though this might be slightly drying but I don't think extremely dry skintypes fare that well with foaming cleansers in the first place. Anyways still loving it and it's a cleanser I always seem to have around to alternate with and it lasts me forever because I don't use it often and I use so little of it. |

Yup. Their products are amazing. I am using the sample of Orchidee Imperiale Exceptional Complete Care Cream, it is great. It hydrates my skin and minimize pores. However, it is quite expensive.  |

I'm a big fan of Orchidee Imperial Exceptional Complete Care Cream too. It leaves my skin, soft, smooth and supple. And the best thing is, it didn't cause any break-outs like what I experienced when I used Creme de La Mer. Thumbs up! |

I've been using Pure Dew Cleansing Foaming Cream for a while to double cleanse my face after makeup removal using Guerlain's Flower Cleansing Creme. You've got to try this 1, it's 1 of the best cleanser I've tried. Far superior to Dermalogica's Ultra Calming Cleanser.
I used a lot of Dermalogica products before I switched to Guerlain. I also find Daily Microfoliant too drying for me and Dermalogica products are just so-so to me. |
